Run more than one menu

Your store can have several menus, for example a dine-in menu and a delivery menu. Your store link opens your default menu. Each other menu opens from the store link with ?menu= and the menu's name. Customers can't switch between menus.

Every store starts with one menu, Primary Menu. Each dish belongs to exactly one menu. Use Copy to to sell the same dish on two menus, each copy with its own price.

Add a menu

Step 1: Open the menu picker

On the Menu screen, press the menu name (Primary Menu at first) beside the search box.

Step 2: Choose New menu

Press New menu, or Manage menus and then Add menu.

Step 3: Name it

Type a name such as Bar menu and press Add menu. The new menu starts empty.

Step 4: Fill it

Tick dishes on your other menus and use Copy to or Move to (see below). You can also add a dish while the new menu is picked on the Menu screen. It goes straight into that menu.

Copy or move dishes between menus

Open Menu → Manage menus. Pick a menu on the left to see its dishes by category. Tick dishes, or tick a category to pick all its dishes.

ButtonWhat happens
Copy toMakes a separate copy of each dish in the other menu. The copy has its own price, photo and switches. Changing one never changes the other.
Move toTakes the dishes out of this menu and puts them in the other one. Nothing is copied.
Good to knowA copy brings the dish's sizes, add-ons, tags, visibility rules and its own tax rate or parcel charge. Stock counts, recipes and offers stay with the original dish.

Your store link (and your table QR codes) open the default menu. Another menu opens when ?menu= and its name are added to the store link. Write the name in lower case, with dashes for spaces. For example, a menu named Bar Menu opens at menuthere.com/yourstore?menu=bar-menu.

Good to knowA menu keeps the link it got when it was first named. Renaming a menu doesn't change its link. If you're not sure of a menu's link, ask Menuthere support.
  • Customers only see the dishes of the menu they opened. Cart suggestions and offers come from that menu too.
  • Every order records which menu it came from. Open the order to see the Menu row.
  • The menu your Google listing shows is the default menu.

Choose the menu your POS shows

The POS shows every menu until you pick one. Pick one in Menu → Manage menus → POS shows, or with the menu switch beside the search box at the top of the POS screen.

Good to knowThe menu you switch to is saved for your store. The POS opens on it next time, on every device, including captain phones.

Rename, change the default, or delete

  • Rename: gives the menu a new name. Customers don't see menu names.
  • Make default: your store link now opens this menu.
  • Delete menu: its dishes go to your default menu. If a dish there has the same name, you get two dishes with that name. The default menu can't be deleted.

Questions

Can customers switch between my menus?
No. A customer sees only the menu their link opened. Only your staff can switch menus, on the POS.
Can one dish be on two menus?
Not the same dish. Use Copy to to make a separate copy. Each copy then has its own price.
I deleted a menu. Where did its dishes go?
Into your default menu. Nothing is deleted.
Is this on Petpooja-connected stores?
No. A Petpooja store has one menu, kept in Petpooja. See Menus synced from Petpooja.
